new to saabs. 140,000 miles on chassis, 35,000 miles on 2.0 185hp.
this one has a symptomatic: typical power steering pump groan.
to be sure, where noise is coming from, i used a mechanics stethoscope. the upper left idler pulley sounds dry and will be replaced at the same time.
1.) could anyone tell me if two quarts would be enough to flush system?
2.) has anyone had experience with FENCO re-manufactured steering pumps?
3.) aftermarket pulleys usually come with low-end bearings, so, has anyone pressed a high quality bearing into the stock idler?
since my ears are new to saabs.....the stethoscope also brought my attention to the cam bearings. a slight whine common? the PVC system was upgraded, but suction sound is dull...... is this common?
